Boa noite pessoal!
I had the chance to sit down with Nodle co-founder Garrett Kinsman at Blockchain Rio last month to discuss his smartphone powered network and why he sees Brazil as a key market.
Nodle is a decentralized network powered by millions of smartphones built to power the Internet of Things. Nodle's "connect-to-earn" platform allows users to earn NODL tokens simply by downloading and running the Nodle app on a smartphone.
It’s probably the most user-friendly crypto app I’ve ever used in my life so highly recommend checking it out.
In this episode we discuss:
* How Nodle, which is software-based, fundamentally differs from hardware-based services like Helium
* The types of applications that can be created on top of a decentralized network of smartphone nodes
* Why existing Web2 infrastructure isn’t cut out for building the types of Web3 applications that Kinsman and Nodle envision
* Why Brazil is a critical market for Nodle and why the team is looking to onboard one million Brazilian users by this time next year
* Why Nodle chose to build on a Polkadot parachain rather than Stellar, Ethereum or other alternatives

Thanks for listening and have a great day,
